Mel: I was in high school when the aliens came. And the Avengers. Bucky Barnes/Winter Soldier: High school, huh? I was, like, 90. Mel: Hah. It's kinda strange that it's all over now, right?

Dialogue

John Walker/Captain America: Okay, well, look at the facts. The infamous Ghost, a S.H.I.E.L.D. reject on the run from 15 nations? The dead one over there, she destroyed half of Budapest.

Ava: Pretty ludicrous coming from the dime store Captain America. John Walker/Captain America: I'll have you know I was actually the official Captain America, so... Yelena Belova: [scoffs] Yeah, for like two seconds. Ava: Before you publicly murdered an innocent man on the streets. Do I have that right? John Walker/Captain America: Really? Define innocent. Hey, look, I'm a decorated combat veteran. I have a loving wife and son. Let's be honest, you guys are just cheap mercenaries. So clearly, I'm supposed to bring you in. Yelena Belova: [chuckling] That was funny. Thank you, we needed that.

Dialogue

Ava: That doesn't sound like a shredder...It's an incinerator. Yelena Belova: [noticing the countdown on the wall] Two minutes. Then Valentina's slate is wiped clean. John Walker/Captain America: You don't know that for sure. Could be anything. Could be for anything. Could be for when they come to pick me up. Ava: Do you feel that?! The temperature rising dramatically as if heat were involved? John Walker/Captain America: ...Okay, it's an incinerator. Bob: Oh, boy. That is no way to go. John Walker/Captain America: Well, how would you like to die today, Bob? Yelena Belova: Okay, ghost lady. Ava: Ava. Yelena Belova: Sure. Whatever. Don't care. We need to get you through the walls, so that you can open the door. John Walker/Captain America: She tried that already. Yelena Belova: I know she did. But we haven't tried shutting down the sound barrier. John Walker/Captain America: Well, if they built it just for her, there's gotta be an independent power source. Ava: [Yelena makes a you-can-b

Dialogue

Yelena Belova: [referring to Bob] I think he's just a civilian. John Walker/Captain America: If he's a civilian, he knows too much. If he's an agent, he sucks. Either way I say we throw him back into the fire. Bob: [chuckling] You said you were Captain America? John Walker/Captain America: ...Why are you laughing? Bob: [still chuckling] Just, cause you're an asshole.

Dialogue

Yelena Belova: I understand. We all feel like shit sometimes. And loneliness? I get that. I get it. And that darkness gets pretty inticing. And then it starts to feel a little bit like... Bob: A void. Yelena Belova: ...Yep. A void. Bob: What do you do about it? Yelena Belova: ...You shove it way down. You just...push it down. Bob: That's great. That's really good advice. Yelena Belova: You're welcome.

Dialogue

Yelena Belova: Eww! Which one of you is wet? Bob: I run hot. Sorry. John Walker/Captain America: Someone's got a weird, hard butt. Ava: It's not my butt. It's my suit. Yelena Belova: Well, you need to get a new suit. Ava: Pardon me for the inconvenience. I mean, I only spent my entire life in labs hooked up to machines so I could create this physical cage to keep my material body from disintegrating at all times. So, yeah, I’m so sorry about that. Yelena Belova: You do not want to start the whole sob story game. I win. Enslaved child assassin over here. John Walker/Captain America: Well, you were just a kid, so... Yelena Belova: Oh? So that's a good thing now? John Walker/Captain America: I just think it might be nice to know that you didn't really know any better. Yelena Belova: [sarcastically] Thanks. I feel way better.

Dialogue

Yelena Belova: Why should you be in charge? You almost killed all of us right there. John Walker/Captain America: Well, let's see. I've been in the trenches of every war-torn country on this planet, rescued God knows how many hostages, and shook the hands of two U.S. Presidents. What else? Oh, High School state football champs back-to-back-to-back. Go Bears. Yelena Belova: [sarcastically] Wow. When I was five, I was on a peewee soccer team called the West Chesapeake Valley Thunderbolts, sponsored by Shane's Tire Shop. We won zero games and one time, this girl Mindy, she did a poo at midfield! Anyone else have any pointless childhood stories to tell? Ava: Grew up in a lab prison. Bob: Meth addicted sign-twirling chicken. It was a summer job.

Dialogue

John Walker/Captain America: [emerging from truck that slid down a cliffside] Oh, God. Yelena Belova: I’ll call an Uber. John Walker/Captain America: Jesus Christ. Yelena Belova: I know. What was that? [referring to Valentina] That was her. She did that to him. John Walker/Captain America: Well, she turned him into a tomahawk cruise missile. Yelena Belova: You were right, she definitely wants us dead. To test on someone like that, it’s inhuman. John Walker/Captain America: Yeah, she’s lost it. Yelena Belova: Nope. She’s found it. [hands research papers to Ava] And she’ll use it. Ava: [takes research papers from Yelena and studies them] What is this? “Power of a thousand exploding suns. Golden Guardian of Good.” That’s a mouthful. John Walker/Captain America: [takes research papers from Ava and studies them] Wow. Sentry. Very shiny, I’ll give them that. Ava: What do you know about this? John Walker/Captain America: There was a rumor that OXE was on the verge of some kind of big breakthr

Dialogue

John Walker/Captain America: Those birds are way too high. They're doing recon loops at 4,000 feet. I mean, they don't know what they're doing. They'll be five or ten clicks away in no time. Ava: Alright, Walker, we get it; you were in the military.

Dialogue

Alexei/The Red Guardian: What impressive friends you've assembled, Yelena. Yelena Belova: We're not friends, Alexei. Ava: No, we're just disposable delinquents. Alexei/The Red Guardian: Whatever you are, the light inside you is brighter. How about this — you are team of scrappy antiheroes? John Walker/Captain America: Yeah. Go Thunderbolts. Alexei/The Red Guardian: What? Yelena, you named them after your pee-wee soccer club?

Dialogue

Alexei/The Red Guardian: [riding shotgun of truck cab with Bucky driving] What kind of super serum did you get? Bucky Barnes/Winter Soldier: I don’t know. Regular. Hydra. Alexei/The Red Guardian: Hydra? Oh. Fancy. Bucky Barnes/Winter Soldier: Yes. Alexei/The Red Guardian: Mine was Soviet recreation. But it’s still good, you know? [chuckles] We are same, you and me! Bucky Barnes/Winter Soldier: Well... Alexei/The Red Guardian: I mean, we are different, but we are same. You know, we could be co-leaders in this, huh? Bucky Barnes/Winter Soldier: Little different. Alexei/The Red Guardian: You get tired, I drive, huh? Bucky Barnes/Winter Soldier: I don't get tired. Alexei/The Red Guardian: No, I mean metaphorically. No, I don't actually want to drive. Yelena Belova: [calls from back] Are we there yet? Bucky Barnes/Winter Soldier: [screams] Almost! Alexei/The Red Guardian: [screams] Almost! [breathes deeply] Okay. Mr. Soldier, what is secret plan, huh? Bucky Barnes/Winter Soldier: The plan?

Dialogue

Valentina: I’m so glad you were able to catch a glimpse before your, uh... retirement. [chuckles] Camera crews are assembling. Finish the job, Robert. Robert/The Sentry: Finish the job? No. Valentina: What? Robert/The Sentry: They’re not a threat to me, so why do I need to kill them? Valentina: You need to do what I say, Robert. Robert/The Sentry: Why? Valentina: “Why”?

Dialogue

Yelena Belova: Oh my God! Stop! There is no "us." There is no "we." Bob changed into that thing, and there's nothing any of you can do about it. Ava: And what did you do exactly? Because I seem to remember you getting your arse beat way worse than mine. Yelena Belova: Yeah! Yeah! I suck! I'm terrible! We're all terrible! Ava, you're not a hero! You're not even a good person! Ava: ...Bitch. Yelena: See? Alexei/The Red Guardian: Slowdown, Um-nichka- Yelena: Alexei, I am not your um-nichka! I haven't heard from you or seen you in a year! John Walker/Captain America: Okay, go easy on him- Yelena: Oh, so you're nice now!? John Walker/Captain America: Is it my turn? Yelena: No, you know you're a piece of trash, Walker. So does your family. John Walker/Captain America: Jesus. Yelena: We're all losersǃ And we lostǃ [walks away]

Dialogue

Robert/The Sentry: It- It needs to be more of a collaboration. Like, the hair, for example. Maybe- maybe, I should have had more of a say. Valentina: Don’t let those idiots get in your head. The blond is great. Robert/The Sentry: You sure? ‘Cause, I don’t know, I thought I liked it. Now I’m not so sure. Valentina: Enough about the hair. Robert/The Sentry: Well, it’s not just about the hair. Valentina: Well, you keep talking about the hair. Robert/The Sentry: No, it’s everything. My suit. My name. My missions. I mean... Why- why would a god take orders from anyone at all? Valentina: I think you’re throwing around the word “god” a bit loosely there. Robert/The Sentry: No, no. Because you said I was all powerful, invincible, and stronger than a whole team of Avengers, which includes at least one god, so... [walks up to her] But, I’m starting to think maybe you don’t know what I am. Valentina: [holds detonator behind back] Oh, goddamn it. Robert/The Sentry: Or what I’m capable of. [chuckle

Dialogue

Alexei/The Red Guardian: Yelena! Little one. Yelena Belova: Go awayǃ Alexei/The Red Guardian: No, I will notǃ Yelena: Well, then, chase me foreverǃ Alexei/The Red Guardian: Fine, I will, because that’s what family does. Yelena Belova: Oh, my God, stop. If you cared, you would have calledǃ I would have heard from youǃ I lost my sister again, but forever! And you disappeared! Alexei/The Red Guardian: [speaks Russian] I'm sorry. I don't know how to do this. I'm not good at it. I didn't think you wanted me. Yelena Belova: I did! Alexei/The Red Guardian: I see that. I'm late, but I'm... I'm here now. Yelena Belova: Daddy, I’m so alone. I don’t have anything anymore. All I do is sit, and look at my phone, and think of all the terrible things that I’ve done; and then I go to work, and then I drink, come home to no one, and I sit and think about all the terrible things I’ve done again and again and I go crazy! Alexei/The Red Guardian: Yelena, stop. Stop. We all have things that we regret. Yele

Dialogue

Robert/The Sentry: [hovering down over the Thunderbolts] You all know the truth. You can’t outrun the emptiness. John Walker/Captain America: I think Bob’s dark side got superpowersǃ Get everybody off the streetǃ

Dialogue

Ava Starr/Ghost: I’m going after her. Bucky Barnes/Winter Soldier: And then what? Ava Starr/Ghost: If she did that, she did it for a reason. Bucky Barnes/Winter Soldier: Well, what if she’s dead, huh? What if there’s no coming back? Ava Starr/Ghost: What if she isn’t? Bucky Barnes/Winter Soldier: How do you know that? John Walker/Captain America: No, no, no, wait, hold on. I think she might have a point. When-when I was back in the vault, I-I saw something. I-I went somewhere. I can’t explain it, but... Alexei/The Red Guardian: What did you see?

Dialogue

Yelena Belova: Enough, Bobǃ Enoughǃ Robert: [appears in bathroom mirror] Yelena? Yelena Belova: Hi. Robert: Hey. Yelena Belova: I just want to talk, okay? Robert: About what? Yelena Belova: About the stuff we spoke about in the vault. Robert: [room becomes dark then a bedroom] Hi. What's up? Yelena Belova: Uh... not much. You know, just watching New York disappear into a big maze of interconnected shame rooms. You ever seen anything crazy like that before? Robert: I-I don’t know what you want me to say. Yelena Belova: That you’ll stop. Robert: Oh, it’s not “me” me. It’s-It’s-It’s “It.” The Void. I-I have these good days, you know? :Yelena Belova: Where I feel... I feel invincible. But then there are a lot of bad days when I remember that nothing.... nothing matters, you know? Yelena Belova: So, you’re just gonna sit here and let it take over? Robert/The Sentry: Well, there’s no use in fighting it. At least I found a nice room. The other rooms are much worse.

Dialogue

Yelena Belova: [putting her hand on Bob's arm] What I said to you before was wrong, Bob. You can't stuff it down. You can't hold it in all alone. No one can. We have to let it out. We have to spend time together. And even if it doens't make the emptiness go away, I promise it will feel lighter. Robert: How do you know? Yelena Belova: Because it already has for me. We can find a way out of here together. Will you try and leave here with me? Robert: [nodding slowly] ...Okay.

Dialogue

Yelena Belova: Okay, okay. Just how-how do we get out of here? Robert: I mean, as as far as I know, it’s just endless rooms. Yelena Belova: Wait, you said that this was the nicest room you found and the others are way worse, right? Robert: Yeah. Yelena Belova: Okay, well, show us the worst. Robert's flashback father: Where do you think you’re going, Robert?ǃ Bucky Barnes/Winter Soldier: [Walker whacks father on head and walks past] Well, he seems niceǃ Alexei/The Red Guardian: The strangest mission I’ve ever been part ofǃ

Dialogue

Robert Reynolds: I’ve been here before. This is where it started. I was roaming around Southeast Asia, thought I’d figure something out, or at least find more drugs. Then there was this guy, started talking to me about a a medical study. A trial drug that could make me stronger. Felt like a miracle. I’d finally get to show everyone that I was more. That I was... something. The Void: And look what you unleashed. The most shameful thing of all was thinking you could be anything more than nothing. [attacks the Thunderbolts with laboratory furniture and equipment] Robert Reynolds: We’re leaving. The Void: No. Robert Reynolds: Stop. Just... let let them go. The Void: Wait. You think they care about you? You don’t matter. To anyone. Robert Reynolds: That’s not trueǃ [groans as The Void tightens tube around her neck] Alexei/The Red Guardian: No! Don’t hurt herǃ The Void: [shatters and showers Thunderbolts with glass of cases] Robert, the hero. Robert Reynolds: I’m stronger than you. The Void:

Dialogue

Yelena Belova: You came for us. What did you see? Are you okay? Bucky Barnes/Winter Soldier: [sarcastically] Oh, I'm fine. I've got a great past, so I'm totally fine. John Walker/Captain America: Yeah, this place is messed up. Alexei/The Red Guardian: We're here together. That's what matters.

[grabs Robert by her] Robert Reynolds: Oh, me too? Yelena Belova: Yep. We stick together from now on. Robert Reynolds: That’s nice. Bucky Barnes/Winter Soldier: Can’t kill her. We gotta take her in. John Walker/Captain America: "Can’t kill her." Maybe when we take her in, I break a few bones. Ava: Oh, I’d like to kill her. John Walker/Captain America: [referring to shield] Maybe when he does get his memory back, he can fix this stupid thing. Alexei/The Red Guardian: At least let me break her legs. Valentina: [cowering under tarp of construction crane] Okay, guys. Alexei/The Red Guardian: Then you can drag her. Valentina: I know we’re all having a lot of feelings ri

Dialogue
